I have a bit of an odd problem.
We're running OpenVPN through a PFSense firewall and the VPN itself is fine but non-related traffic appears to be hampered. Connecting to a website when the VPN is up takes a good 30 seconds, doing a tracert, it takes a good 15-20 seconds per hop and customers connecting to the VPN are complaining that Microsoft 365 is unbearably slow.
I suspected that all traffic is being routed through the VPN but it isn't and when I perform Ookla's speed test, it shows the correct ISP and speeds of the local service, so it isn't going through the VPN. When I disconnect the VPN, all goes back to normal.
I tested a different VPN, based on a TP-Link router, using the same OpenVPN client, this doesn't happen.
I'm scratching my head where the problem could be. Any ideas?
Client version is 2.4.7
